## When to activate

Monthly for new reps (first 12 months). Use to monitor ramp progress against targets and identify when coaching is needed. Provides early warning if rep is off-track.

## When NOT to use

Not for territory planning — use territory-planner instead. Not for performance reviews — this is ramp assessment only. Not for fully-ramped reps (>month 12).

## Risk Factors & Interventions

### Off-Track Indicators

Check if any of these apply; if yes, intervention needed.

- [ ] Month 3: Pipeline <$[X]M or <[X] deals identified
- [ ] Month 6: <[X] proposals delivered or $0 closed revenue
- [ ] Month 12: <[X]% of quota closed or <[X]% territory coverage

### Coaching Interventions

If rep is at risk, implement one or more:

1. **Prospecting Boost:** [Manager joins 3 cold calls/week for 2 weeks]
2. **Deal Review:** [Weekly deal deep-dives to improve qualification and closing]
3. **Peer Mentoring:** [Pair with [experienced rep] for 2 co-calls/week]
4. **Training:** [Specific skill training: e.g., discovery, negotiation, CRM]
5. **Territory Reset:** [Reassign lower-performing accounts; focus on high-probability]
6. **Performance Plan:** [Formal 30/60/90 day improvement plan if severely off-track]

**Current Intervention:** [None / [Intervention type]]  
**Effectiveness:** [Not yet applicable / [Trend: improving/stable/declining]]

## Success Prediction

**Probability Rep Reaches Quota by Month 12:** [X%]

**Confidence Assessment:**
- [High (>85%): On track in activities, pipeline, and closes]
- [Medium (60–85%): Mixed signals; on track in some areas, needs improvement in others]
- [Low (<60%): Off-track in multiple areas; intervention required]

**Most Likely Outcome:** [Reaches quota in Month X / Reaches quota 1–2 months late / May not reach quota]

---

## Next Steps

**For Manager:**
1. [Action 1: e.g., "Schedule weekly prospecting reviews for Month 4"]
2. [Action 2: e.g., "Introduce [peer mentor] pairing"]
3. [Action 3: e.g., "Create deal review cadence"]

**For Rep:**
1. [Action 1: e.g., "Increase prospecting to [X] activities/week"]
2. [Action 2: e.g., "Focus pipeline on [segment/account tier]"]
3. [Action 3: e.g., "Attend [training] on negotiation"]
